The Los Angeles Chargers have reached an agreement with tight end David Njoku on a one-year contract potentially worth up to $8 million. Njoku, 29, became a free agent after his contract with the Cleveland Browns voided on February 10. Over his nine-year career with the Browns, he recorded 34 touchdown catches and 384 receptions, ranking second in franchise history among tight ends, behind Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome. Despite his impressive career, Njoku has struggled with injuries, missing 11 games in the past two seasons. His performance dipped in 2025, where he caught four touchdown passes but only managed 33 receptions for 293 yards, marking the lowest yards per reception since his injury-limited 2019 season. However, he had a standout year in 2023, earning a Pro Bowl selection with 81 catches for 882 yards and six touchdowns, all career highs. Njoku was drafted by the Browns as the 29th overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft.
